Halloween in Hershey | Hersheypark in the Dark

Now that it’s officially October, let’s get down to business! If you’re looking for ways to Halloween in Hershey, I’ve got you covered with all kinds of things to do in Hershey PA. On the top of that list: Hersheypark in the Dark! Here’s what you need to know about visiting Hershey this month.

Ghosts like chocolate too!

At least, that’s what I hear when it comes to celebrating Halloween in Hershey.

There’s a trip on our calendar and I can’t wait to enjoy, oh, just about everything here. And I can’t think of a sweeter place to go for Halloween than Hersheypark.

I’ve picked out a few things you might want to add to your itinerary, too.

New this year: Character Glow Party. The Hershey Characters are dressing in costume too. LOVE IT!

Live entertainment including the Screaming Mummies band.

All the fall park food you can imagine: pumpkin funnel cakes, pumpkin roll ice cream sandwiches, pumpkin dipped cheesecake…. seriously. I am down for ALL of this goodness.

New this year: Special hops and harvest menu from Spring Creek Smokehouse and Country Grille unique to each weekend; offering a feast of fall and beer/cider flights in the new Yuengling 1829 Patio & Pavilion, with live entertainment on Saturday evenings.

Halloween at The Official Resorts of Hersheypark

When it comes to excellent customer service and the full Hershey, PA experience, I can’t recommend staying at one of the official resorts of Hershey park enough!

A taste of Cuba at the Hotel Hershey.

Both the Hotel Hershey and Hershey Lodge offer “Hersheypark Happy Halloween” and “Hersheypark In The Dark” packages during the Halloween season (October 19-November 4).

Packages include deluxe accommodations for one or two nights, breakfast with Hershey’s Characters, admission to Hersheypark In The Dark Halloween seasonal event for one or two days, admission to Hershey Gardens and admission to the Museum Experience at The Hershey Story Museum.

The indoor waterpark at the Hershey Lodge is a perk only for hotel guests!

Seriously, the value for a long weekend to spend a Halloween in Hershey is plussed when you stay at one of these hotels!
